All of you '06 owners...did you 1) Go with the Pedders set-up 2) Go with 18" factory wheels or 3) Go with aftermarket wheels with greater offset. What's the best "cure".

You forgot # 4,, just put a wheel spacer on the front,,you can get them at most automotive shops or try Pep Boys or something like that 1/8 th or 1/4 inch will do it
